Fork in the meal


I'm a Clean forker. For those of you who don't immediately recognize this distinction, it is the practice of cleaning one's fork completely with each bite of a meal.
Messy forkers have no concept of this. Messy forkers do not even realize they are Messy forkers. Clean forkers on the other hand, always notice Messy forkers. And we always cringe when a Messy forker offers us a bite of their food, graciously presenting it on their messy fork blithely unaware that we Clean forkers are cringing internally. Only the most glorious chocolate mousse pie will motivate us to even attempt a bite off a messy fork.
